Hebbville, I'd District.-An infant daugh-
ter of Mr.. Lewis Seible died June 10th, aged 4
months and 9. days. Rev. H. N. Greninger con-
Quoted the funeral services at the residence of her
parents.
Miss Maggie Goss, daughter of Mr.. Thomas
Goss, died of consumption on June 18th, aged "a
years, months and % days. The deceased had
lived with her uncle, Mr.. Jacob Hinkle, during
her lifetime. The funeral was largely attended,
Rev. H. N. Greninger officiating, assisted by Rev.
]. M. Ettinger, of York, Pa. The Salem Sunday
school, which numbers about two hundred pupils,
led the funeral procession, each pupil carrying q
beautiful bouquet of natural flowers, which was de-
posted in the grave almost filling 1t. Her casket
was beautifully decorated with flowers. The de-
ceased was devoted Christian lady and she will
be sadly missed by her uncle and many friends.
Rev. J. M. Ettinger, presiding elder, preached
two excellent sermons last Sunday, at Salem
Church, goodly number taking communion
The services throughout the day were quite spirit
ual. This was the presiding elders first visit to
our community, with which he was favorably i'm
pressed, and he made good impression, leaving
many friends behind.
Mr.. Paul lost fine COW last week by accident
The ground floor of the stable had settled about
three inches below the sill, and as the COW was in
the act of going out at the door her foot slipped
under the sill and broke her leg and she had to be
killed. How frequently find stables in the
same condition as Mr.. Paul's, where horses and
COWS have to pass in and out, and how frequently
we are called upon to chronicle the same casualty.
Miss Gertie, daughter of Mr.. Henry Wedi was
married last week in Baltimore. The friends who
attended from this section did not return until the
next day.
Mr.. John A. Smith, son of Mr. George Smith,
who has been critically i'll, is now convaescing
slowly, being attended by Drs. Monmonier and
Everhart. Mr.. Smith is popular young man in
our community He fought ModocS and other in
;o;h Io cd fvQv Waatarn
wids and lava beds.
The anniversary at st. Luke's Church, last Sun
day, was we'll attended and enjoyable throughout.
The artistic skill displayed by the ladies in the
decoration of the church certainly was grand, for
which they deserve much credit.
Mr. Franklin Upton and lady drove to the Pow
hatan Church last Sunday night, and while in the
church some contemplate thief stole his whip and
turned his colt loose. The loss of the whip was
not much, but man who would be guilty of turn
ing loose colt that is scarcely "bridle wise" and
especially an Orange Blossom colt, full of "mettle,"
as they generally are should be given place back
of the bars for at least ten years, and should the
scoundrel be found out he'll get it.
Mrs. Wedi's arm, which was injured by fall
from the corn house steps some time ago, has
never gotten we'll, neither has Mrs. Upton's knee.
Both of them still suffer acute pain, and no doubt
will permanently.
Mr.. Peter Clay and your correspondent took q
Sunday. The road was in splendid condition all
the way, which speaks we'll for the supervisors of
both the Baltimore and Carroll county divisions.
The drive was certainly delightful. Vast fields of
golden grain, broad acres of corn and widespread
grassy plains met the gaze, which gave to the pic
turesque, rolling landscapes spread out as far as
the eye could reach, romantic loneliness nowhere
else to be found. Everywhere along the drive the
thrift of the farmer seen, and one most notice
able feature was the splendid barns, that resemble
ducal palaces more than barns.
A certain dude in our section practiced music
almost constantly while the literary entertainments
were being held but these have closed, what will
he practice now, eh?
Last Monday severe storm passed over this
section, which caused St. Johns Church to rock
like cradle and which terribly frightened the
school kept there. The teacher had to hold the
door, so terrible was the pressure of the wind.
